So I have one account from my work computer that shows me as "registered" and one from my home computer which won't let me merge the pair (keeps telling me the email address already belongs to another user...me!)

There's no "login" link anywhere obvious, so how do I merge the two accounts?

My recollection is login was at the top of the page. What Internet browser are you using? Maybe it's not displaying the login correctly?

Firefox for Windoze. I see my name, rep | register | faq | paleo directory {search} In the top wrapper I see the facebook integration wrappers, but nothing about logins. – Jake Feb 2 2011 at 20:06

Some follow up details: the problem may just be oddly cached cookies, since I can log in/out from work (Linux machine), but that option never presents as an option at home. Seems odd, but then again I think they really have 2 accounts for me in the database.

I wonder if any PH developers can comment?

Jake, which of your two accounts do you want to be the primary one? "Jake" (2824) or "Jake Weiskoff" (2756)? – Paul Mar 17 2011 at 19:42
"Jake" 2824 is the one that's controlled via login. Sorry for not getting back to you sooner. – Jake Apr 14 2011 at 19:20

 No worries. I just merged them. Hope to see you again sooner this time! – Paul Apr 14 2011 at 21:36

Login/logout is the first hyperlink after the name in the gray search bar at the top right.

Well that allowed me to login via the correct account, but I don't think I'll ever be able to recover that old one. Oh well. – Jake Feb 18 2011 at 12:22
